BBC Cam Change
Has anyone changed a cam on the 454BBC with the engine in the car? I know all the front end pieces need to come out, but I really don't need or want to pull the engine, unless I have to. Any comments or suggestions are welcomed. Thanks to all for the great advice.

It can be done with the engine in the car. Of course the radiator needs to come out. I think the hood also needs to come off. I did mine without discharging the AC, and flipped the condenser over to the side. It's really about the same as a small block.
